I found that the members of r/luckystar were saying very sexual things about characters that, while 18, had very child like designs. And even if, they were saying shit like, “Cunny!” and, “Correction!” so, yeah.
I constantly reported all posts and comments like that I came across and eventually made a post asking why they were saying things like that. I wasn’t hostile, and was in fact, rather calm about the situation. Meanwhile, they were all extremely rude and hostile towards my post, calling me names and such, and about 20 minutes later, my account was shadowbanned.
So, not only did Reddit moderation side with the pedos, they didn’t even have the decency to tell me what I did wrong. Assuming how it all happened so suddenly, I’m just gonna assume the pedos all mass-reported my account for God knows what. Any and all appeals I’ve mad since then received no response.
I still stuck around for a few months after that, [that whole deal happened back in May of 2025.] but the extreme leftist political dooming invading every corner of the website I used made it absolutely miserable to use.
Tonight, I finally put my foot down and said, “I quit!” I discovered this website and made an account here. I guess you can use this post to welcome me to the Fediverse.
Congratulations on getting away from that hellscape. My experience on corporate social media sites is you easily get banned for criticizing awful viewpoints but as long as you stick within certain parameters you can be an awful person with awful views, and mods give zero fucks.
I’ve been banned for calling awful open bigots “bad words”. I reported their bigoted hate speech and crickets. I was permabanned for reposting a widely available photo that embarrasses trump. I even got disturbing death threats from a doctor in Florida for arguing with him about trump. I posted screenshots of him threatening my life on his yelp page for his practice and yelp literally just deleted those screenshots and scolded me for posting them. There’s a doctor out there who fantasizes about murdering strangers and he feels empowered to share those fantasies because Facebook and Yelp proved they’ll protect him if he does.
All these things cause me to find it hilarious when the right wing claims they are censored and banned unfairly. It’s because they literally want to be able to say anything and never see a consequence. In my experience, they’re mostly in that position. But it’s never good enough. They happily create their own safe spaces where nothing short of Nazi viewpoints are tolerated, but they cannot stomach any perceived limit on their speech.
